California
Home, sweet, Home. What
can I say about her? I've always hated California, and
have sworn up and down that I'd leave the first chance I
got. I must say, however, that after having lived for two
years in Scotland, I am really starting to appreciate
home. Sure, the endless warm weather and sunshine does
get a tad bit boring after the first twenty years or so,
but it does actually beat the alternative. For all of
those who don't live here, the mental image which springs
to mind when someone first mentions California is
probably not unlike the one above; but California is so
much more than that. The nation's most populus state,
California is also it's most geographically diverse.
Where else could you start the day below sea-level in
Death Valley, and with a short drive and long hike be on
top of Mt. Whitney, the hightest in the lower 48 states?
Here are a few pictures from California so that all my
ponder why I ever left:
Here are some shots from the John Muir Trail.
